Steps:
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Place marinade ingredients in a food processor and process into a paste. Place the chicken and marinade in a ziplock bag and massage well to mix and coat all sides well. (Or brush all sides well with marinade and place in a container.) Marinate 20 mins or up to 3 days.
- Grill each side of chicken 6-7 minutes, or until good grill marks appear. Lower heat and move chicken to cooler side of the grill and continue to grill until chicken is cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165F.
- Let it rest 5-10 mins before serving and squeeze with lime. Sprinkle with optional cilantro.

SASSY SUMMER COOLER
So I am going on a girls weekend trip to the beach. We needed a signature drink for the weekend. This is cool with a little fruitiness but not too sweet. The mint lingers and makes this so refreshing, it will be great to sip on while sitting on the beach listening to the waves and catching some sun. Note ... I didn't have access...

Steps:
- 1. Prepare Cucumber Mint Vodka a few days ahead of time. Pour Vodka in a sealed jar put several slices of cucumber and several mint leaves and let sit in the fridge for a few days.
- 2. Prepare Lemonade. Either make your favorite fresh Lemonade or a mix . Just make sure It is sweet and tart.
- 3. Prepare Strawberry Puree. Slice 12-15 strawberries and a few tablespoons of sugar and blend well in a blender.
- 4. Now gather the rest of your ingredients and you are set to go. This will make several beverages.
- 5. Start by muddling a few mint leaves in a glass. If you don't have the tool to muddle you can break the leaves up with a fork
